Ava (2 Kings 17:24), also Ivah (2 Kings 18:34; 2 Kings 19:13; Isaiah 37:13), the capital of a small monarchical state conquered by the Assyrians, and from which king Shalmaneser sent colonies into Samaria. It is most probable that Ava was a Syrian or Mesopotamian town, of which no trace can now be found either in ancient writers or in the Oriental topographers.
